I don't care how many glitches there are in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet, I was enthralled by the story progression, especially with the depth and personalities of the characters. Nemona, using the starter weak against the players on purpose, to see if we can match and surpass her in battle prowess. Arven, and his reasons behind his sour attitude at first, being his Mabosstiff being injured by ancient/future Pokemon, and how he didn't see his parents, the professors, in 10 years. Penny, and all of Team Star, and how they consider their friendship as their greatest treasure, and their desire to fight back against their bullies in fheir flashbacks. This has got to be on par with Gen 4 and 5 in terms of lore and story, and I love it, an 10 out of 10 for me!

[@Ditto.007]

Arven is the type of character I want in GameFreak he was so unpredictable that our thoughts about him constantly changed rather than most older characters who were very one dimensional.

It took me a solid 10 hours of hunting to find it considering the fact that shiny encounter sandwichs and the shiny charm were not accessible at that point in the game

Found a lot of shinies on my first playthrough (in both Scarlet and Violet). Violet got Fletchling in the first thirty minutes and my Jumpluff in Area Zero. Scarlet found a Golduck while looking for a Roaring Moon for Pokedex. A Girafarig, Great Tusk and Zwelious in Area Zero, hunting for all with a sandwich. Just recently played Violet again on other switch and found a shiny Sneasel.

Eri is the only person in the entire main story to have ever defeated me. That’s pretty wild. And fortunately/unfortunately for you: I got my first shiny less than an hour into the game. As soon as I left my house and went down the hill with Nemona after getting my starter I got a shiny Psyduck. I have since also caught shiny Rellor, and shiny Dunsparce (just before fighting Sada and finishing the story a couple nights ago). If it’s any consolation, the Dudunsparce I evolved it into is the standard 2 segment, not 3.

Fun Fact: It's actually possible to get climbing before gliding on Koraidon/Miraidon, since the abilities are tied to the different Herba Mysticas, and are not in a set order.

i always thought it was dash high-jump swim glide climb

[@QuackJoker30202]

I knew this, because I did this in my playthrough. I couldn't beat the great tusk because almost all of my team was weak to ground and/or fighting so I just went "screw it" and did the tatsugiri/dondozo

[@jonathanflanagan1504]

It's interesting that the movement upgrades you get are based on which herba mystica you find, not the order of when you find them, meaning that defeating the False Dragon Titan always gives you climbing, defeating the Open Sky Titan always gives you swimming, and so-on.

wait what

[@Bozoboy420]

@@MaxGaborskiyeah so false dragon as said above is climbing and clawf is running faster

[@nucleonegro9762]

And the paradox titan donphant gives you gliding

This video is gold 😂🔥

[@MarbleSodaPop]

I was playing Violet while listening to this video in the background and I found a random shiny Houndour during a point in the video where he was talking about not getting any shinies yet

[@purgatoryproductions310]

i love how mikey gets more and more insane throughout the video

[@anniecrossing3266]

This was such a delightful video. You've made me laugh more times in half an hour than I have all week. This was awesome 💖

[@patriziamohr7202]

I feel the shiny pain. I got my first one only after 63 hours in the game, story fully done and almost being done with my pokedex

[@skyeplaysgames4598]

I finished the full dex and full story, then spent 7 3-star shiny + encounter boost sandwiches to get an Iron Valiant. Their name is Jake and they are my False Swiper now
